To earn Magna Society recognition, dealers must demonstrate an exceptional level of customer service as well as strong business performance.

The Magna Society was created by Audi to identify and recognize dealerships that go above and beyond the standard business objectives and sales targets. To qualify for Magna Society status, a dealership must show that they are engaged in sales and service programs and adhere to specific business processes. Their facility and staff should also properly represent the Audi brand and culture.

“The Magna Society award offers well-deserved recognition to dealerships that lead by example through a successful business model and an ongoing commitment to delivering industry-leading customer service,” said Mark Del Rosso, EVP and Chief Operating Officer, Audi of America. “The strong Audi dealer network in the United States is one of the key contributors to the brand’s continued, record-breaking success.”

The Magna Society awards support the goals established by Audi and its dealer partners to provide customers with an exclusive brand experience. By the end of 2016, the number of U.S. dealer locations exclusively selling Audi models increased to 201 from 15 in 1999. Audi sales in the U.S. grew 4 percent in 2016 for a total of 210,213 vehicles, surpassing 2015 as the brand’s best annual performance.
